Katie said, clearly upset. “You might not be aware, but Raegan had given birth to a kid with another man. Mitchel ignores his own child but looks after Raegan’s, totally enchanted by her.”
Luciana, thinking back on her encounters with Raegan, felt she got all muddled up. Her memories of Raegan being polite and warm were at odds with the idea that Katie was pushing, painting Raegan as some kind of witch aiming to ruin Mitchel.
Gripping her head in pain, Luciana groaned and said, “Katie, my head’s throbbing. I need to lie down.”
Katie, slightly annoyed but hiding it well, sweetly offered, “Alright, I’ll get someone to drive you home.”
Luciana hopped in the car. Before long, she reached home. As she stepped out of the vehicle, she inadvertently saw the driver texting Katie to report.
It dawned on Luciana that her life had been subtly invaded by Katie, even to the extent of arranging her transportation, keeping tabs on her without her noticing.
Back in her room, Luciana emptied all the medication provided by the so-called doctor Katie had introduced to her down the drain. Then, she filled those medicine bottles with similar-lLooking vitamins.
Just as she felt like making a call, she halted, recalling this phone was sent by Katie.

Instead, Luciana used an old phone, normally for ordering groceries from the servants, and called someone. “Fritz, is that you? It’s Luciana. I need your help to look into someone.. “
Later that evening, Raegan learned about Mitchel’s being investigated from Erick, who was abroad.
Without wasting a moment, Raegan called Mitchel. The phone barely rang once before he answered.
“Hey, Raegan, what’s going on?” Mitchel’s voice was gentle.
“My brother just told me you’re under investigation. Is that true?”
Raegan didn’t beat around the bush.
Mitchel paused before answering, “Yes, but it’s no big deal. Don’t sweat it.”

Raegan wasn’t convinced. Erick’s account suggested the gravity of the situation, with Alexis and Henley up to no good.
“You’re not telling me the whole truth again. Where are you?” Raegan pressed.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
“One second,” Raegan said, thinking Annis had reached the gate with her groceries.
Raegan moved to answer the door, but after she opened it, she was met with Mitchel, looking as handsome as ever.
Shocked, Raegan switched her gaze between her phone and Mitchel.
Mitchel smirked slightly, his tone playful. “Miss Foster, it seems a homeless man has shown up at your door. Any chance you could let him in?”
Mitchel’s face held a semblance of calm, yet Raegan noticed the shadows of fatigue darkening his eyes.
Immobilized by a tumult of emotions, Raegan felt Mitchel’s arms encircle her gently, his chin finding a soft perch on her shoulder.
